Minority leader of the Kingston and St. Andrew Municipal Corporation Andrew Swaby is calling on the Jamaica Public Service (JPS) to install and repair street lights within the municipality, as stipulated in a resolution by the corporation.
Swaby says too many communities are without street lights. He notes that the reality is that it is a safety hazard for residents and affects policing. Speaking at a town hall meeting on Saturday, Swaby says the JPS must act more efficiently to help prevent insecurities across the municipality. The resolution stipulates that defective streetlights in the municipality must be repaired within fourteen days or less, from the date it was reported.
